Stefano Corbo

Stefano Corbo

Stefano Corbo is an architect and educator at TU Delft – Chair of Public Building – where he serves as Coordinator of the Master’s program. He holds a Ph.D and an M.Arch. II in Advanced Architectural Design from UPM ETSAM Madrid. Before joining TU Delft, he taught at several academic institutions in the United States, Europe, the Middle East, and China. Corbo has contributed to several international journals and has published four books: EXTERIORLESS. Form, Space, and Urbanities of Neoliberalism (Routledge, 2023), From Formalism to Weak Form: The Architecture and Philosophy of Peter Eisenman (Ashgate/Routledge, 2015), Interior Landscapes: A Visual Atlas (Images, 2016), and Notes from the Underworld (Schiffer, 2019). In 2012 Corbo founded his own office, SCSTUDIO, a multidisciplinary network practicing public architecture. Corbo’s research trajectory focuses on the comprehension of spatial and aesthetic conditions that characterize late-capitalist architectural production and that manifest in a diverse constellation of types, typologies and hyperobjects.

Bologna and its Computing Centers: An Archaeology of Urban Media (1961–2022)

Stefano Corbo
Bologna is one of the main data processing hubs in Europe. Stefano Corbo traces the infrastructural and architectural development of the city’s computer centers, arguing that to understand the recent history of the city, we must pay attention to the material history of data.
